December 4, 2011: Pineapple Neck Warmers, Easy Lotus Scarves from Annie's Attic & Baby Bib for Niece

Hi everyone,

One really good thing about football season is that with back-to-back football games, I get a lot more crocheting done.  The thrill of the game keeps me in my chair so that I can crochet!

I worked up 2 more Pineapple Neck Warmers using a size H Clover hook.  One is red made with Lion Brand MicroSpun yarn (soooo soft!)

The pink one is made with Lion Brand Baby Soft yarn and a size H Clover hook.


Just for fun, I made up a Pineapple Neck Warmer with some Department 71 Perle Cotton size 8 thread and a Clover hook, size 4 (this is smaller than a size 4 US hook, by the way).  This was something I wanted to try just to do it:




I bought an electronic pattern from Annie's Attic this weekend called, Easy Lotus Scarves.  I love this pattern too and whipped up two of them with Lion Brand Baby Soft yarn and a Clover size H hook.









There is a laptop computer under there ..... somewhere!  LOL











And lastly, here is the baby bib I am making for my niece for a baby shower.  She's registered at walmart.com and Babies R Us, but I figured that she won't be getting a thread crocheted baby bib and bootie set from either of these places.  So, I dug out my pattern and started one for her using Aunt Lydia's size 10 thread and a Tulip size 12, 1.0mm crochet hook:

Lee Ann's Jar O'Brownies (gifts in a jar).jpg

A friend gave me this recipe as a "gift-in-a-jar."

These are the best brownies I've had.  It's a "gift-in-a-jar" recipe meaning that the recipient of this only adds the "wet" ingredients.  Attach the recipe to the jar and decorate it.   :)


Enjoy!
